Park and is set in the midst of tropical
gardens planted with the mos t colorful
of flora. The building is one of the most
beautiful to be found in Cuba. In the
cons truction of the building over 65 var-
ieties of onyx, jade and marble were
u sed. All of the floors are of marble and
terrazzo and only mahogany has been
u sed for the woodwork.
In the floor at the center of the build-
ing, a large diamond has been set, a
donation by the workmen. It is set in
the center of a compass design and is
the zero mile post of Cuba.
Everyone seems to take pride in their
homes and insist on line materials and
workmanship. Along the waler front
drive one finds many homes built with
no space between. They have iron
grilled windows with s hutters and large
carved mahogany doors, wh'ich give the
impression that no one lives in the
neighborhood. When one is admitted
they find luxurious dwellings with beau-
tiful patios in the rear or center of the
buildings.
In 1587 Morro Cas tle was constructed
by the Spanish. Coral rock was quarried
out for the moats and there was built the
jortress of Cas tellode las Ires reyes Del
Morro-Castle of the Three Kings of
Morro. The moat is crossed by a draw
bridge. All about are prison-like rooms,

vaulte d roofs and dark re cesse s. Whe'n
th e Morro was occupied by a garrison
the s harks g a thered he re for garbage
thrown into the sea and it is among the
traditions of Morro that through the s ea
passage the bodies of Cuban prisoners
were cas t to the sharks.
The s tone building on the harbor sid e
is a well equipped signal service sta-
tion, the semaphore with its flags and
signals announces to the town the ap-
proach of ships. Below the cas tle on the
harbor side are the guns of the battery
of 12 apostles.
There are many cigars made in Cuba
and many modern factorie s are to be
found there. Havana has interesting
stores where fine clothing, jewelry, furni-
ture and art may be found . In contrast
to this, one may find a cigar s tore and
saloon on almos t every corner. It was
interesting to note , that there are no slot
machines or similar devices in Havana,
however, in the s uburbs and around the
beaches a few slot machines may be
found , as well a s some novelty games .
I noticed two ten-record Wurlitzer
phonographs in Havana and a World
Series marble game near the Capitol.
At the beach near Playa de Mari-
anoa one may find beautiful cas inos
where the many games of chance are
open to the public. Fine boat clubs and
public bath houses with beaches that
may be compared to the famous Waikiki
of Honolulu are available to the tourist.
Many days may be spent visiting the
spots of beauty and interest. There
seems to be no limit to the trips that one
might take. Thus, it was with some
misgiving that I prepared to leave the
grand city of Havana and return to the
States. One never says good-bye for
they know that they will always want
to return again.

reported vending
machine conscious.
CHICAGO.-The American public is
ve nding machine conscious today, de-
clares H. F. Burt, head of Autornat
Garnes. He points to the fact that scores
of items are sold to millions of people
every day through this quick , easy,
profitable method of distribution.
"One of the line features about such
a business," he asse rts , "is that when
machines are placed at strategic points
they cons titut e what might be termed a
corps of sale smen who are working
cons tantly day and night for the owner,
without pay, and turning in all the prof-
its. Many are attracted to this profitable
business as a part - time proposition,
since machines are serviced in s pare
:irne, thus giving the owners an extra
income.
"The small investment required for
the machines and merchandise is with-
in the reach of practically everyone,
enabling a man to go into a business
of hi s own on comparatively little cap-
ital. It offers advantages which most
other kinds of business do not have:
There is no rent to pay, for instance,
no losses from 'bad accounts,' no ad-
vertising expense, no payrolls to meet.
And the scale of operation can be as
large or as small as the owner wishes.
The more machines he has working for
him the bigger his total profit, of
course ."
Burt declares that the Silver King
vendor was designed with the thought
in mind of making operation simple, at-
tractive, profitable, and almost self-en-
larging. It is his belief that this ma-
chine is "without an equal in its field."
